Marsa Alam Trip from the 5th to the 9th of April

Abu Dabbab Group is happy and privileged to offer you once again our four-day trip to Marsa Alam by popular demand! Enjoy your Easter holidays at the fabulous Aba Dabbab Lodge in Marsa Alam and allow your family, friends and yourself an amazing treat!

You will simply love Abu Dabbab Lodge’s green gardens and the nearby Abu Dabbab Beach with its white sands. This is where you can go snorkeling, chill-out in one of the open beach marquees or hop on a zodiac with your friends to find dugongs!

Your programme during the Marsa Alam Easter Trip at the relaxing Aba Dabbab Lodge includes the Qul’an Experience. This amazing trip takes you to the best of two worlds under water and above water. You will experience the silence at the Qul’an Mangrove Forest, far away from the sounds of Cairo! You will enjoy the silence under water at Sharm El Lulli between fairy tale corals and fish.

So, what do we have in store for you this coming Easter?

We will meet in Cairo at 11:45pm on Thursday 5th of April in front of Go Bus in Nasr City (Nady El Sekka) and depart at midnight. You will have the comfort of a modern air-conditioned Mercedes bus for bigger groups, a coaster for up to 14 persons or a limousine for up to 4 persons.

Day One
You will check in on Friday 6th of April 2018 at the Abu Dabbab Lodge in Marsa Alam. This is where you have the day entirely for yourself to walk the beautiful lush green eco- gardens or chill by one of the two pools. You can also jump in the Red Sea at nearby Abu Dabbab Beach, with your fins and mask on, to visit one of the two very nice house reefs or even spot turtles on the sandy bottom!

Day Two
On the second day, we invite you to take part in our popular ‘Qul’an Experience.

Qul’an Trip. The best of both worlds!
The Qul’an Trip introduces you to two magic forests, one above the water and one under the water. You will be part of the best of two worlds during your Qul’an Experience. Imagine yourself walking barefoot, gently splashing on the edge of a sheltered inland ‘branch’ of the Red Sea, having taking the shape of a deep blue ‘lake’. Imagine the sound of sheer silence or that of leaves, rustling in a gentle breeze.

Qul’an Trip. The magical mangrove forest!
You are now in Qul’an Mangrove Forest. Qul’an is part of what feels like an oasis, including desert and marine habitats, creating an ecological symbiosis. The mangroves of Qul’an are salt tolerant plants that grow in abundance in here. The magical forest here also provides shelter and nursery and nesting grounds for coastal birds.

Qul’an Trip. Meet the majestic mangrove tree!
Qul’an’s unquestionable landmark is its majestic odd-shaped mangrove tree, towering above the salty ‘lake’, as if to safeguard the ecological environment with the Red Sea in the background. The Qul’an mangrove forest is very photogenic and offers a wonderful panoramic view of the adjacent Red Sea.

Qul’an Trip. Fifty shades of blue at Sharm El Luli!
Before we visit Qul’an and have a freshly prepared lunch buffet in the bedouin tent near the mangrove forest, we first take you on a trip to the white sands and fifty shades of blue of the waters of Ras Hankorab. This pristine spot is locally known as Sharm El Luli. This is where you put on your mask and fins and just walk into the water right from the stonefree beach.

Qul’an Trip. The aquatic fairytale of Sharm El Luli!
The coral formations at Sharm El Luli are truly fairytale stuff. The fishlife here is interesting with so many different species. The vibrant colors, shapes and sizes of dozens of different corals are just stunning.

Day Three
On the third day, you will have the Abu Dabbab Lodge and Abu Dabbab Beach at your choice again to do whatever you like. If you’re not a diver, why not familiarize yourself with an introduction dive under the guidance of one of our instructors!

Why not anticipate in one of the many beach activities!.This may be a perfect day to participate in one of our adventurous and additional excursions. It’s your trip! It’s your holidays! The choice is yours!

Day Four
On the fourth day we do not depart until 16.00hrs so you will have all the time of the world to check out at the reception and to do whatever you like at the lodge or on the beach! Maybe you admired the turtles and dugongs of Abu Dabbab Beach so much you want to have another go!
